SCRANTOX, MAY C, 1002. For rrovcrnor of PcniiHylvanln, on the Issue of nn open field nnd fair play, JOHN P. ELKIN, of Indiana, subject to the will of the Republican musses. Choose the Safe Path. "T IS freely admitted Hint tlie pant .year lins been nu exceptionally Kooil year In the mines. The miners have worked full time and rained move pay than In many years. There have been grievances. There al ways arc. There has been much un rest. This Is Inevitable In the formative stages of a labor union movement. But on the whole, comparing the miner's condition in the year Just closing with his average condition In, say, the past ten years, certainly no one will contend that it was not better. Shall this comparative prosperity bo put on a desperate ha::.ird by another strike'.' If the advice or those who have at heart the best Interests of the miners, the miners' families and the whole com munity shall be taken it will not. Any man can see thai the operators are de termined to make no more Important concessions at this time. They seem to have com ted a strike. This can only he explained on the supposition that they regard one as inevitable sooner or later nnd prefer that it should take place at once nnd the sooner be over. The chances are that they are fully pre pared for a strike and will, ir it conies, stand out for a final settlement. Under present circumstances they are virtual ly ii unit and have back of them unlim ited resources. II' they want a strike or If they "are ready for It and will do nothing further to avert it, then mani festly it would be good generalship on the part of the miners to disappoint them by not striking. Looking at tills whole situation in the light of history, it seems as though to morrow's meeting of the executive com mittee wcic the crucial point in the career of the United Jline "Workers in the anthracite coal fields. If it accepts the operators' challenge and stilkes, then it must win absolutely or go down as prior mine unions have gone down under the stiess of whole or partial de feat. The first of these alternatives seems very unlikely to come to pass. The second can only come by the men letting anger get ahead of careful cal culation. Two years ago a presidential elet'tlon brought powerful auxiliaries into play In the miiieis' behalf which are absent today. If Unlit Is the woVd it can hardly fail to lie a desperate one, carried to the bitter end, The union olllelaltJ doubtless, therefore, know whether they are ready to accept, the issue on that basis. If they have not yet decided in their' own minds it be hooves them, for the community's sake Jts well as for their own, to weigh the matter carefully and, in case of doubt, to choose the safe path. Tlie( Imposition of a fine of live dol lais upon the consumer ought to prove an c tractive blow at "scab" cigars; but it lather dlllleult task appears to await sonic one In the detecting of non-union smoke. Back to Reason. ACAKKFUL examination of the loprtsentatlve newspapers lelleetlng the public opinion of different sections shows that already the American people are recovering from th'u sudden fit of hysteria which followed the publication, with Penioeratlu exaggerations, of the oi tiers given by General Smith in the fc'nmur campaign, Unexplained nnd unrelieved, they had an ugly look. Op ponents of the administration took holip'of them and started in to fire the feertitu; of the country, Jinny who knnjE nothing about war and are wholly Ignorant of the trying eon (lltlolu) surrounding General Smith in hls-vt'orH, ami of the necessity and swift,; efllcaey of a show of severity to chel'liinata Mulay treuchery, wenlj Into tho-'alr nt once. Hut. they aio coming down. The Democrats ovei played their hand, They made, their motive too visible, The publishing of the testimony In the court' martial and acquittal of Major WnJJCr, with Its Illuminating wealth of detail as to the circumstances under whljjlj-ithe recourse to retaliation had to hoi taken, opened many eyes. The fact- that Major Qurdener, who first nutdo charges against the character of thownjlMry- administration and methods and whom the Democratlu evt$ qt-WuBhlngton wanted to have tirn&hoino Immediately, so thut they coul(JworU up more antl-udinlnlstra-tlon,cumpalgn thunder prejudicial to the good name of the urmy and In jurious to our Inlluence among the Filipinos, ias failed to obey the war ilopqjtfment's' cabled Instructions to specify charges In order that they may receive- thorough Investigation has also hud'uu educational effect upon flutter- Hun'of "Ndlm on Tiiper; It ending. ,M ,.V .10 .11 ,::o .TM .2.1 .!" .CD ,"i M .1". ,1V, .17 .13 .1I ed citizens who want to be fair.

And so It goes rind will go, The Democracy alms In vain to discredit the soldiery on the firing Hue and to poison the popular faith In the honesty of the administration's Intentions. It tried this In 'Gl and failed and It will rail even more signally In this yenr of grace, when the soldiers whom it would discredit have under circumstances of exceptional dlflleulty and trial, lit a far away land, amid a strange people speaking a strange tongue, performed wondeis In uulck pacification as well as In laying foundations for the future. Mistakes will not change the determin ation with which the American people have addressed themselves before the world to the problem In hand. Scuttle will fall overwhelmingly as a vote winning Issue and the party seeking to cnriy It on lop of abuse of our soldiers will need a coroner's inquest. This is alo a glowing season for Klkin delegates, Judge Pennypackcr. Till-' announcement that Judge Samuel V. Pennypackcr, Senator Quay's cousin, will be the senator's candidate for governor Is not necessarily final. It has the appearance of a "feeler" to uncover Insurgent sentiment. Neverthe less it Justifies Interest In Judge Penny packer's personality and record. AVe append ti biographical sketch taken from the Pittsburg Gazette: "Judge Pennypackcr was born April n, IS 13, in Phoenix vllle, of a family whoc genealogical record leads like a list of all the Teutonic settlers who ever gave Clermantown Its name. The foun der of the family in America was Hen drick Paunebecker (1GT4-17."4), who was land surveyor under the Penns and took an active part In the early administra tive affairs. The judge's father, Isaac Anderson Pcnn pucker, was a distin guished Philadelphia physician, a pro fessor in the college of medicine, and his grandfather, Matthias Pennypackcr, sttt in the state assembly nnd In the constitutional convention of 1SII7. Ills mother was Anna Will taker, the daugh ter of a Pennsylvania Iron master. "lie received his education at the Groveiiiont seminary In Phoenixville and at the "West Philadelphia institute, where he was prepared for Yale col lege. In 1SG3, when he was just 20, came the civil war, and young Pennypacker went to the front as n private with (he Twenty-sixth Ktnergency regiment. "When the war closed he, studied law and his success was far out of the ordi nary, lie was admitted to the Phila delphia bar In 1SGG, after preparing him self in the oflieo of Peter Mcf'all nnd in the law school of the University of Pennsylvania. Within two years after commencing active practice he was elected president of the I,aw Academy of Philadelphia, About that time he commenced the series of important legal compilations with which his name is associated. lie edited, with E. G. Piatt and Samuel G. Holllngsworth, a 'Digest of the Kngllsh Common Iaw Heports' (1ST!)), lie collected, in four volumes, 'Ponnypacker's Supreme Court Cases,' a volume of Pennsylvania col onial cases, and assisted in the bring ing out of the 'Weekly Notes of Cases," a work which embraces forty volumes. "He was admitted In 1SS7 to practice In the United States Supreme court nnd whenJudge James T. Mitchell was ele vated to the Supreme court in 1SS9 Gov ernor Heaver appointed Pennypacker to the vacant place on the bench of the court of common pleas. He was re garded as so eminently suitable lor the place that the following autumn he was elected by both parties by what amounted to a unanimous vote for a ten-year term and was re-elected two years ago? lie is one of the vice-presidents of the Philadelphia Law academy, "As a historian of his native state, and especially of the German-American colonization movement within its bor ders. Judge Pennypacker is acknowl edged to stand pre-eminent, lie has written over llfty books and papers on this lino of research, of which a number have undeigono Dutch and German translations. Among them are the 'An nals of Phoenixville and Its Vicinity,' 'The Pennypacker lteunlon' (1S7S), 'His torical and Biographical Sketches' and 'The Settlement of ilerinnntowu,' a highly valuable woj'k, which was pub lished about two years ago with an edition limited to ::r.O copies, of which all were sold within two weeks. Ills library contains a most remarkable col lection of the first books printed In Pennsylvania, to the number of 7,000, and of these L'50 aro from Benjamin Krunklln'a press. It Is said that he has tho best collection extant of books re lating to tlie German colonization of Pennsylvania. "Ills Interest In educational matters has been always very strong. From 1SSG to JSStt he was a member of the board, of public education of Philadel phia, and was controller of public suhools for tho Twenty-ninth ward, Pruaklln and .Marshall college bestowed on him tho degiee of Lh, D. Hu has been for a long time a trustee of the University of Pennsylvania', "To give some itlen of tho wldeness and vatlousaess of his Interests, he Is 'or has been state commissioner for tho Valley Forge reservation, a member of tho supervisory committee on the res toration of Independence hall, president of the Pennsylvania Historical boclety, of tho Pennsylvania German society and of tho NetheiluiuU society of Phila delphia, vice-president of tho Colonial society, president of tho I'hlloblblion club, member of tho American Phllo sophlcul society, tho Society of Colonial Wars, tho Society of the War of 1812, the Deutsche Pioneer vereln, Deutsche gasselschaft, Cunstojter Volksfest ver eln, Union I.eugue club, founder and munnger of the Pennsylvania Society of the Sons of tho Involution, past com mander A Taylor post, Grand Army of the Jtepubllc, and president of the Twenty-blxth Pennsylvania lOmergency Heglinent association." It Is Evident from thifi statement of facts that Judge Pennypacker has a creditable record) .and while It has been largely ncadcinle and clolslcr-llkc, It In clean. Ills position on the bench has keptjilm aloof front political activity! he Is without factional embarrassments nnd If nominated nt the call of the peo ple there would be no reason for any Itepubllcan to vote against htm. It Is, however, evident to alt that his mention for the nomination Is wholly the work nf one tnnii, and that man a relative, Senator Quay. If nominated he could not be other In the estima tion of the people than Quay's man, peculiarly nnd especially so since the popular choice as elicited In open pri maries to date has fullen upon another. If the Itepubllcans of this state arc willing to substitute Senator Quay's choice for their own choice, Judge Pcnnypneker may be nominated. It Is up to the people to decide. The suggestions regarding another public path In the central part of the city are tl'Jiety. The mid-day breath ing spot, convenient for tired workers who have a fe"w moments to spare at lunch time or In other hours of the day, will be of greater benefit to the public than the most elaborate parks that are located at a distance from tho business centers. Mr. Bryan announces that he is no longer deslious of being the Moses of tlie Democratic party. It has evident ly just dawned upon the silver prophet that Moses was not allowed to enter tlie piomlsed land. Th? Politicians and the Soldiers Fiom the I'HMiurg (Ja7rtle.
